Quick question...my 03 quattro automatic is shifting hard at certain RPMs from 1st to 2nd, i can sort of feather it out but it hits hard sometimes... anyone have any suggestions. do you think i just need to get my system flushed?

 

check the trans fluid levels, if they are low there's probably a leak, if not, a purge might take care of it. If this doesnt there probably is a deeper problem. hope that helps
